2-1 THEORY OF OPERATION

The main topology of the UPS consists of bypass path, AC-DC converter, DC-AC
inverter, battery charger, DC-DC converter, control circuit and detection circuit.
Moreover, the intelligent power management software is also optional. The
function and efficiency are superior to the traditional UPS.

Fig2-1 is the hardware block diagram of the UPS.

The UPS operation is described as below:

When the utility power is applied into the UPS, it was divided into two ways after
going through the breaker and EMI filter. One way is connected to AC-DC
converter which converts the utility AC power into a DC voltage which is called
DC-BUS voltage then divides into two paths. One path goes to charger which
converts the DC-BUS voltage into a proper DC voltage to charge the UPS battery.
The other path goes into DC-AC half bridge inverter. The other way works as a
bypass path. The bypass relay near the output will choose either the bypass path or
inverter output. In general, the UPS will internally do the self-diagnosis. If there is
no problem, the bypass relay will choose the inverter output. This is so called
“ON-LINE mode”.

2-1
 In case the utility power failure, the AC-DC converter and charger will be off duty.
The DC-DC converter works and converts the battery voltage into DC-BUS
voltage. The DC-AC inverter converts the DC-BUS voltage into AC voltage. This
is so called “ON-BATTERY mode”.

The auxiliary power circuit supplies the designated power to all the control
circuits.

Because the DC-AC inverter is always working, the DC-DC converter can work
rapidly and replace the AC-DC converter while the utility power fails. Furthermore,
the bypass relay continuously keeps in the position of inverter output to supply the
regulated power for the load. There is no power failure to loading equipment.

„ Description of each block

To make the service personnel clearly understand the function of our UPS, each
block is described in detail as below.
ƒ Input Breaker:
Protect UPS suffers from serious damage under abnormal condition. Also,
prevent the breaker of distribution panel from tripping while UPS fault
happens.
ƒ EMI Filter:
The EMI (Electro-Magnetic Interference) filter can suppress the noise either
coming from the utility power to UPS or out of UPS to the utility power.
ƒ AC-DC Converter:
It is a double-voltage boost converter with PFC (power factor correction)
function. It forces the current drawing from the utility power to be in phase
with the input voltage and regulate the output DC voltage to be about 380V.
ƒ PFC Control Circuit:
By use of this control circuit, the current drawing from the utility power could
be in phase with the input voltage. It also make the UPS has a wide input
voltage range.
ƒ DC-BUS:
The output DC voltage of the AC-DC Converter and DC-DC Converter are
called DC-BUS voltage.
ƒ DC-AC Inverter:
This inverter converts the DC-BUS voltage into AC voltage which is in phase
with AC input voltage. It is a half bridge inverter.
ƒ Control Board:

2-2
 The control board consists of protection circuit, detection circuit and control
circuit, which control the output voltage to be a sine wave.
ƒ Bypass Relay:
It is used to select the output of UPS to be the input utility voltage or the
inverter output voltage.
ƒ DC-DC Converter:
It converts the battery voltage into DC-BUS voltage.
ƒ Battery Bank:
It is one set of batteries connected in series. According to the different capacity
of UPS, the battery bank has different number of batteries in series.
ƒ Charger:
It converts the AC voltage drawing from the utility power into DC voltage,
which properly charges the battery and keep it with full energy.
ƒ Aux. Power (Auxiliary Power):
This circuit converts either the output of charger or battery bank voltage into
±12V and 20V and supply the demand power of control circuits in the AC-DC
Converter, DC-AC Inverter and control board.
ƒ External Battery Charger:
To quickly charge the external battery after the UPS has been back-up, we
design the external charger. Its charging current is larger than the internal
charger on the power stage board of UPS. So, the external charger is only used
in extended type of UPS.

2-2 FEATURE
The UPS, available in 1KVA, 2KVA and 3KVA, is an advanced on-line UPS
providing reliable and consistent sine-wave quality power to vital equipment. It
supports personal computers, networks, servers, telecommunication equipment
and a variety of other facilities. With its outstanding protection features, the unit
keeps your applications safe and running smoothly at all times.
PFC (Power Factor Correction)
With this function, the investment in the capacity of circuit breakers can be
reduced, specially it will be highly regarded as an important feature in critical load
applications.
Complete Protection
On-line double conversion design, pure sine wave output and zero transfer time
provide best protection. With a built-in surge, spike and line noise protection, the
UPS prevents destructive hardware damage and extends system life. The EMI/RFI
filtering design prevents electrical noise from affecting computer operation and

2-3
data files. Besides, the UPS provides built-in Fax/Network cable (RJ11/RJ45)
jacks protecting your hardware from surge, spikes and line-noise which travel
along communication lines, therefore providing you a complete “back door”
protection.

Intelligent design
Integrated with a microprocessor, the UPS is able to perform intelligent functions.
The UPS triggers over-voltage protection function and transfers to “On- Battery
mode” even when utility voltage exceeds 280V. In addition, the UPS can accept
large voltage variation of 80V to 280V. Wide input voltage range means less
battery power usage frequency and longer battery life-span. Besides,
programmable outlet design, suitable for power management, is also included in
this unit.

Green function design

The operation in sleeping mode is designed to just keep charging which saves the
energy a lot.

User friendly interface

The UPS provides a variety of functions which meet users’ needs. Users can
instantly understand the status of the UPS via the informative LED display.
Audible alarms, bar meters and status indicators, such as battery replace indication,
UPS fault, line condition, overload etc. are simple and easy for user to understand.
Moreover, users can simply reset the circuit breaker instead of having to replace a
fuse in the event of output overload.

Network Management
Build-in communication interface port supporting RS232 protocols enhances the
reliability and manageability of the UPS over all major operating systems,
including Windows 95/98, Windows NT, Netware, UNIX, and others. Besides, the
UPS also supports the Simple Network Management Protocol and Hyper Text
Transfer Protocol via plugging a SNMP/HTTP adapter into the build-in SNMP
slot

5.3 TROUBLESHOOTING

WARNING MESSAGE
Indicate the UPS is under abnormal condition follow the instruction below to
solve the problem:

5.3-1 Input abnormal:

In case that failure is happened
and utility is too low or too high,
line LED will flash.

Input Abnormal

5.3-2 Battery Replace:

This LED function is to alert user that the
batteries should be replaced. When the
microprocessor in the UPS detects a
battery fault, the UPS alarm will beep for
0.2 seconds and interrupted by an interval
of 2 seconds.

1. Recharge the batteries for at least 8

hours.
Battery Replace
2. If problem remains please replace
the batteries.

5.3-3 Battery Low:

This function is to inform user the
remaining power capacity of the batteries.
When batteries reach a low level condition,
the UPS alarm will beep half second every
1.2 seconds until running out of battery
capacity.

Battery Low

5-3
5.3-4 Overload Turn into Bypass:
If the load exceeds the allowable rating,
after a limited period, the overload LED
will light on and buzzer continuous
beeping to warn the user. The user should
unplug some loads to release the overload
condition.

Remove some critical load. Overload turn into bypass

5.3-5 Short Circuit:

When the output of the UPS shorts in
“ON-LINE mode”
or “ON-BATTERY mode”, the UPS will
shut down (without output voltage). As
soon as the short circuit is happened, the
overload LED will flash and the UPS alarm
will sound continuously. When remove short
circuit, the UPS output will recover. If short
circuit is happened in “BYPASS mode”, Short Circuit
the UPS will protect itself by tripping the input
breaker and shut down. Remove critical load.

※ UPS internal fault

If the following conditions occur, the UPS fails. At this time the UPS will
transfer to “BYPASS mode”. The bypass LED and fault LED will light on and
alarm continuously. If utility is too low or too high the UPS output will be
disabled.
FAULT MESSAGE
Following information indicates various symptoms.
Use this information to determine what factors cause the problem.
1. Alarm will sound to alert user that the UPS requires attention.
2. One or more additional load/battery level LED indicators will illuminate to
provide a diagnostic aid to the operator, described as below:

When the UPS inner components overheat, the UPS will protect itself by
thermo-switches. This status is so-called “O.T.P”
When under (or over) voltage is happened in the UPS output. This kind of fault
5-4
 will be detected by the microprocessor in the UPS and is so-called “U.V.P”
(“O.V.P”).
When under (or over) bus voltage is happened in the UPS and is so-called “Bus
U.V.P” (“Bus O.V.P”).
